PgcEdit 0.5

[r0lZ]

It's even easier. In angle blocks, the First ILVU End is non-rezo.

Anyway, I'll add an angle column... when I will have some time to devote to PgcEdit.

Don't really know anything about the cell type flags, although looking now I have seen a little on angle types. Unless I'm missing something else, this would require checking each PGC to establish if angles were present. At the moment I load up in VobBlanker which will give a warning pop up box on loading if angles are present.

Reading 2COOL's request again, it seems I misread it first time around. I was thinking that an angles column in PGC Selector would be handy to see at a glance if angles are present, whereas 2COOL was referring to column in the PGC Editor which I guess is more useful as it's at cell level.

@r0lZ: Maybe include in the "DVD Opened OK" dialog box / status bar that angles are present.

That's too difficult. The PGC datas are analysed by PgcEdit only when you open the PGC Editor. Doing that when loading the DVD requires too many work, and will slow down the Open DVD operation.

No problems, not important.

But if you just want to know if any titles have angles you can look at VMG_TT_SRPT

Thanks!

I wonder if Derrow uses PgcEdit more than his app when it comes down to editing commands? Just a thought...

Thanks. Of course, it's the simplest way.

BTW, is it legal (or possible) to have multi-angles clips in the menu domains?

[jeanl]

I think I remember mpucoder mentioning that it's not..

PgcEdit 0.5.7 released.

• A. PgcEditor: Added an Angle column ("A.") in the cell list. The angle value is computed from the Type Flags. "-" means all angles, "?" means error.
• A. Added a function to remove the current LU from the IFO. The VOB cells are left unreferenced. You may strip them with VobBlanker easily.
• A. Added a button "CellTimes.txt" in the Pgc Editor to generate the list of cell times needed to remux a clip with chapters. You may add an offset to the cell times if you want.
• A. Added an option to hide the [hex codes] in the main commands listbox.
• A. Added an option to go automatically to Trace mode whan a DVD is opened.
• A. Shift-clicking on a PGC in the PGC Selector now toggles the breakpoints on that PGC (without selecting it).
• A. Added a "Documentation" item in the help menu. It tries to open these files: "<PgcEdit install dir>/doc/PgcEdit_manual.chm" (under Windows only) then, if the file is not found, "<install dir>/doc/PgcEdit_manual.htm", then "<install dir>/doc/PgcEdit_manual.txt", and finally, it opens the online HTML version stored at VideoHelp.
  The old, obsolete single text file has been removed from the distribution.
• A. Added an option to tell PgcEdit which web browser you want to use. Now, the homepages, online docs and DVD-Replica online help are available also for Linux and Mac users.
• E. The shortcuts of the context menus of the PGC selector are now displayed in the menu.
• E. Added tooltips on the edit buttons with the keyboard shortcuts.
• E. Added tooltips in PGC Editor's color table to show the color number.
• E. Added some tooltips on the labels of the cell list in the PGC Editor.
• E. Added the Control-Delete shortcut to call the Blank Out All PGCs utility.
• E. The "DVD modified, are you sure?" warning now allow to save the DVD.
• E. New Preview 1.9 by jeanl. In info mode, the buttons outlines are displayed. Also, mfc42.dll is now linked in the executable, and is therefore not needed anymore under Linux.
• F. Bug in the Search function in All mode: the line numbers were wrong.
• F. Menu Editor: The Align button functions where not working as expected when the current button position was previously edited manually. Fixed.
• F. Workaround for a Tk bug under X11 (Mac and Linux): a wrong height is calculated by Tk for windows with menus. Therefore, the OK/Cancel buttons were hidden in the menu editor.
• F. Some display problems fixed under Mac (X11 and Aqua versions.)
• F. Error when blanking a titleset when the preview window is open fixed.
• F. "Save IFOs as" saved the modified VOBs also (in the original folder).
• F. When the option "Store backup folder in parent of VIDEO_TS folder" is ON, the backup folder is saved now in the parent only if the DVD files are in a VIDEO_TS subdirectory.
• F. Trace: LinkTopCell in a menu button linked to the previous cell. Fixed.
• F. Fixed a rare bug when reading the menu buttons informations.
• F. Fixed some english grammar/vocabulary errors.

There are also many changes in the homepage:

• New PgcEdit documentation, available online and downloadable in HTML or Windows .CHM format. See installation instructions on the homepage. Thanks to Blutach for this great work!
• New installation procedure for Mac users, with a starter application. You don't need to install Tcl/Tk anymore. Thanks to Pucklock!
• New guide by Blutach: How to use PgcEdit’s new Jump to PGC Upon DVD Insert Macro.
• 2COOL's Jump2PGC helper application updated to v 1.55.
• Link to a new guide: Menuing DVD compilations easy, by Bjs.
• Updated version of Tobi's Beispiele.PDF.
• Added the links to download the Test-SPRM-7 test DVD, useful to setup the virtual player (used in trace mode).
• And more...

Note that the old ASCII documentation (in english and french) has been removed from the PgcEdit distribution. Have a look at the Installation section on the homepage to learn how to replace it with the new HTML or Windows Help (CHM) files.

Hum. I changed the background of the listboxes because the X11 gray is a little bit depressive, especially under Mac. But I may add an option to leave it gray in the next release.

[sweetness]

wow, i think this release should be v0.6.0 with all the changes.
thanks, and take a vacation too, you need one.

[zacoz]

Another version, another big thankyou r0lZ.
